Daniel D. West
Dan was born in Ronan, Montana to Lloyd and Jean West, April 19, 1945. As a child Dan lived in many places across the western United States coming to settle in Spokane in 1966. He was a Chevron Dealer, ran Dan West and Sons Automotive & Towing as well as Hwy Safety Supply where he built and sold custom tow trucks and carried a full line of parts for all towing needs Dan and Bonnie McAteer were married in 1970 and worked side by side in the businesses until retiring in 2014. He was a lover of classic Mopar cars and his pride and joy was a red 1957 Dodge D500 Convertible. He and Bonnie entered many car shows with it and took it out as often as possible just to drive around with the top down, smiles on their faces and the wind in their hair.
Dan had Parkinson's and though he battled bravely for many years he just couldn't fight any longer and passed March 27, 2026. Dan is survived by his wife Bonnie, children Dusty (Donna Mike (Debbie), Michelle (Joe) Romero, Steve (Rachelle), 13 grandchildren, 10 great grandchildren and one on the way, one brother, Pete McDonald, one sister, Molly Daring. Dan was preceded in death by his sons Dan Jr. and Doug, three older sisters and one younger brother as well as his great pal Jack Doherty.
A big thank you to Horizon Hospice for the kind and gentle care given to Dan and his entire family, what a blessing they were.
